Graph Types

Selecting a Graph Type

Now that you have identified the data types of your independent and dependent
variables, you need to match a graph type to your variable types. Initially,
you can classify your independent and dependent variables as either Qualitative
or Quantitative.
Most of the time you will be working with a single, quantitative dependent
variable. If that is the case, then you can use the decision tree below
to help you decide what type of graph you should use based on your independent
variable(s).
